Timing issue, confirmed too. In my case startup script looks like this:
#!/bin/bash
sleep 10
xinput --set-button-map Laser Mouse 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 8 9
empathy -h
start-skype.sh
but without sleep does nothing. IMHO many users will be affected...

Update to previously written findings:
Empathy starts ok (occasionally with wrong notification Password
required, see bug #840875) but skype doesn't start ever. When I have
tried some zenity dialogs into script, they didn't show, but empathy has
started:
#!/bin/bash
sleep 10
xinput
tredegar: that works great, thanks!

I have the same bug:
Programs supposedly called from the .desktop files in
~/.config/autostart do not run.
For example my Update notifier never runs, unless I start it manually.
I found this when I added an entry to turn off capslock. This is the
script that is called from the .desktop file:
I am still getting errors though ...
It seems that the desktop files are not including full paths for some
reason?
swaj...@swajime-laptop:~# grep gnome-session daemon.log
Jan 10 11:35:42 swajime-laptop gnome-session[1607]: WARNING: Application
'gnome-settings-daemon.desktop' failed to register
I've copied the files from the etc/xdg/autostart directory to *all* of
the autostart directories, and still these files appear to be being
ignored
Right now, to get my volume, wifi, power, bluetooth, and etc. applets to work,
I have to run a script every time I boot the system up:
# cat
Please start a failsafe xterm session from GDM. From this, please run
gnome-session --debug 21 | tee ~/gnome-session.log, and attach the
resulting file to this bug report.
Please remove the files you duplicated before doing this though

Ok ... I removed those files, and ran the command you gave me. It gave
me 5700 lines of output!
For some reason, when I did that, all of the programs started like they
were supposed to. And they started again like they were supposed to on
the next reboot too.
:-)
** Attachment added:
I am satisfied now that it seems to be working.
I'll be happy to help if there's any more info you might still want or need.
Many many thanks ! :-)

I don't have any such issues there. Are you sure you're not starting a
failsafe session?
